platform_date_picker 0.0.1

A platform aware date picker function.

Platform Aware Date Picker

This package will automatically show either the Cupertino or Material Date Picker depending on the platform specified.

Usage

To use this plugin, add platform_date_picker as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file.

Getting Started

Simply call the static method show() of the PlatformDatePicker class and it will show either the appropiate Date Picker depending on the platform. It returns a Future DateTime object if the user selects a date, otherwise it returns null. Pass in the same parameters as you would for calling the function showDatePicker() or for creating the widget CupertinoDatePicker.

DateTime date = await PlatformDatePicker.show(
    context: context,
    firstDate: DateTime(DateTime.now().year - 2),
    initialDate: DateTime.now(),
    lastDate: DateTime(DateTime.now().year + 2),
);

You can also force the function to show either the Cupertino or Material date picker by setting the showCupertino or showMaterial fields.

DateTime date = await PlatformDatePicker.show(
    context: context,
    firstDate: DateTime(DateTime.now().year - 2),
    initialDate: DateTime.now(),
    lastDate: DateTime(DateTime.now().year + 2),
    showCupertino: true,
);

Finally you can set the height of the Cupertino date picker by setting the height field. The default value is the bottom third of the screen.
